Mississippian

Mississippian rocks are exposed in the Llano region and in the Hueco

Mountains of the Trans-Pecos area. The Trans-Pecos rocks primarily

contain brachiopods with some bryozoans and gastropods.

The central Texas Mississippian rocks are much more fossiliferous and

some of the material is well preserved. Fossils reported from this area

include brachiopods (Pl. 17), crinoids, gastropods, cephalopods,

trilobites, and ostracodes.
